Portrait of François Boucher is a 1790 unspecified by Louis, Bosse, held at Leiden University Libraries.
This painting shows a man, François Boucher, looking straight at us. He's dressed in old-fashioned clothes. The interesting thing about this work is that it's based on a painting by another artist, Roslin, which makes you wonder what the original looked like and how it was different. You can look up the technique of sfumato to learn more about how artists create soft, hazy effects in their work.
